Jul 25, 2018I may be foolishly frustrated that Blackwood only has one more issue, but its hard not to want a lot more of this series. It's my hope that the sales are backing this title that readers are supporting it and enjoying it as much as I am. To have a book that's entertaining, horrific and enticing makes Blackwood a comic no one should miss. Read Full Review

Jul 25, 2018It's a solidly fun if creepy and violent book at times and it delivers an engaging throughline with what's going on all while bringing out lots of great artwork. Read Full Review

Sep 01, 2018Blackwood #3 is a slow book, but its enthralling and populated with a cast of unique and engaging characters. Veronica and Andy Fish support it with some damn good artwork, and the book earns a recommendation. Check it out. Read Full Review

Jul 25, 2018The cover for the 4th issue looks bad as heck, in true Blackwood fashion, and I of course, would like to read the conclusion, though Im worried its going to wrap up a little too quickly, based on the previous books. Read Full Review

Blackwood is weird and gross and terrific. With only one issue left and so many loose ends hopefully we go back to this school at a future date. I really like the Phish's art and colors, the book feel unique in my stack and has been a joy to read. It also has great non-cringy teen dialogue, not something easy to do i'm sure.

Can't say I'm excited to see how this story ends but I'm 3 issues deep. Overall it's okay, just forgettable.
